Dundee Ceramics Workshop are looking for new Freelance Tutors!

Dundee Ceramics Workshop are looking for new tutors to join our team! We’re looking for tutors to assist with teaching our 4 & 6 week courses, day courses and private sessions.

We’d like courses to run throughout the rest of this year and potentially into early next year, though we’re flexible on the frequency and with how much time you’d like to take between scheduling blocks. Our maximum class capacity is currently six for wheel throwing classes and 8 for hand building, and classes typically last between 2 and 4 hours per session.

DCW will provide materials and tools for classes (we have four wheels), and our kiln technicians will handle firing. Tutors are paid £27.50 per hour, and we suggest half an hour for prep/clean up for hand building, and half an hour for prep/an hour for clean up for wheel throwing sessions. Prep/cleanup is paid at £13.20 per hour. We’ll also provide a parking pass for use whilst teaching. 

If you’ve got experience of a variety of ceramic techniques and have some teaching experience, we’d like to hear from you!

Essential Criteria

  • Wheel throwing or Hand building experience (minimum 2 years)
  • Experience of working independently
  • Experience of working with the public
  • Experience of leading a group of people

Application Process

1- Submit your application below
2 – If your application meets our criteria, we’ll invite you to an informal interview (we’ll meet you either in the workshop or on zoom)
3 – Together we’ll plan your classes for the coming months and we’ll give you an induction to the workshop.

Applications will be reviewed upon receipt. As this is a freelance position and we have lots of classes, we have multiple tutoring positions to fill.
